Chapter 54 54. Yu-Gardi-M-Le-Viosa-!
"Trying is a choice that the brave will never regret."
Slughorn also raised his wand in praise, and he seemed very happy with Jon's choice, without the slightest feigned joy.
"If Hogwarts is still the same Hogwarts, and I am still the head of Slytherin, no matter what I say when you enroll, I will let you enter Slytherin."
"That is a pure-blood academy, would you be willing to accept a student with dirty blood like me?" Jon sneered in a low voice.
Slughorn said very seriously.
"A true Slytherin never takes bloodlines as an absolute standard. As long as you have a noble heart, lofty ideals, and are willing to take absolutely brave actions for your own goals and ambitions, then you are a perfect Slytherin."
"And then? Now in the Hogwarts castle that uses snakes as the school badge, is there a person who can be called such a perfect Slytherin?"
"I'm sorry, but I never went back to that castle after I stepped down as the dean of Slytherin, but after I leave here, I might go there to have a look." Slughorn said so easily Said.
He had completely lost the patience to continue chatting with Jon, and the tip of the wand in his hand was precisely aimed at Jon's body.
"Let's stop here today, Jon. Don't worry, I'm looking forward to what you can grow into when we meet next time, so no matter what choice you make, I won't stop me in the end." hurt you."
While his voice was falling, the tip of the wand was already flashing with a bright red light!
"Lost in a swoon."
Jon's voice sounded almost at the same second!
"Wingardim Leviosa!"
He didn't wave the wand in his left hand, but at the moment the spell showed its effect, he dodged the stun spell flying towards him at a speed far beyond ordinary people, and rushed straight towards the fat walrus !
Jon is very aware of the gap between himself and a veteran magic professor. Whether it is the number of spells he has learned or the strength of casting spells, even if he learns for another ten years, he may not be able to catch up with Slughorn's current level.
He had no choice but to find another way to win. Although the magic on the ring was taught by Slughorn, but because of the special nature of this magic, it is very difficult for others except the parties who learned it to use this method of magic. Method.
Resolving the Levitation Curse only requires an ordinary general-purpose solution, but for a Levitation Spell that takes effect in Jon's body, how can the ordinary solution affect the wizard's body?
Since there is no way to fight at the magical level, let's try it in the simplest and purest way.
The levitating spell used on the body can only reduce Jon's weight but not strengthen his strength, so if it is close to hand-to-hand combat, he himself is actually just the strength of an ordinary 11-year-old boy, but Slughorn is also a centenarian , and it is still the kind of weak and sickly type who is extremely sweet and lacks exercise, and sweats after a few steps.
Comparing the two of them, they are half a catty, but even if they are so half a catty, the winning rate is much higher than that of Jon using his wand to shoot at him!
At the beginning, Jon's actions were extremely smooth. Slughorn didn't seem to react to his extraordinary speed at all. When he realized that the stun spell had failed and raised his wand again, Jon had already arrived. Arrived in front of him.
"Wake up! Teacher! If the Dark Lord really respects you and is willing to accept you, then why would he force you like that during the second attack! If your reaction is really slow for half a second, it's really true." It will blow up his subordinates to death!"
"boom!"
His fist didn't hit Slughorn's face, there was a slight ripple, and the transparent mask blocked the fat walrus.
Slughorn looked at Jon who was close at hand, smiling without changing his expression.
"I am more sober than anyone myself, Jon. It is because of his character that he can really do what he wants to do. This is also your biggest shortcoming. If you can not let your emotions go If it is so heavy, then I believe that your future achievements will not be low."
He spoke softly, without waving a wand in his hand, nor chanting spells in his mouth, but the wooden boxes scattered around the utility room produced a huge change without a sound.
These dead things were given life by magic, they became soft and slender, and finally turned into countless emerald green poisonous snakes, stabbing towards Jon's direction!
Jon didn't retreat or choose to dodge again. It can also be said that he is completely unavoidable now. The entire storage room floor has been occupied by poisonous snakes, except for the space under his and Slughorn's feet. !
He raised the wand in his hand, aimed at the transparent mask, and uttered the only offensive spell he knew now.
"All petrified!"
The bright red spell shot out from the tip of his staff. At such a short distance, there was no possibility of the spell itself being shot sideways, and the most sufficient impact was retained!
The iron armor curse protecting Slughorn was stained red by this petrification curse!
But even so, the difference in the quality of the spell between the two is so great that there is still no way for Jon's spell to break through this layer of protection, or even to break it, leaving some fine spots on the surface of the armored spell. Cracks like spider webs.
Even so, it was enough for Slughorn to have a surprised expression on his face.
"It's a perfect petrification spell. It shouldn't be taught in the class of first-year students at all. You can reach this level only by self-study, and you have already surpassed most of your peers."
While he was speaking, the poisonous snakes all over the ground had spread to Jon's feet.
Jon, who failed to take a hit, didn't show much disappointment on his face. He stared at Slughorn's eyes through the broken gap of the Iron Armor Curse, and said calmly.
"The day I saw you refining the compound decoction, I originally wanted to give you a surprise, teacher. But it's not too late to let you know now."
He didn't swing his wand, and he didn't even try to raise the wand in his hand. He just spit out from his mouth, the spell that most wizards would use when they were learning magic for the first time.
"Yu-gadi-mu-le-viosa-!"
The next moment, the "Levitation Curse", which had never been shown before the eyes of the world except Neville, showed its effect!
Just when the fastest poisonous snake touched his shoe, the gravity of the earth suddenly lost its traction on Jon, and a strange force made him float in mid-air!
